This has just arrived, despite leaving Get Knitted on the 8th.
Apart from not needing anymore yarn this is drawing me to it. BUT and there are huge buts here. I can do cables, very neat cables, very TIGHT cables. Therefore any cabled item I have knit on a large scale usually fits a teenager, not me. Debbie Bliss has also seen fit to make the largest size not very large so I can compensate for this.
However since my last cable fiasco I have had both my Carpal Tunnels released, do you think this may help or was it probably the cabling that caused it, that and clearing a scrubland that is now our garden!
I'll keep studying it and knitting socks. I do like a challenge.
Have a nice weekend one and all.

Yeah for Yorkie invasions :)
I had both my carpal tunnels released in January, and haven't tackled much apart from socks. I have been doing a cable sock which seems to have been OK. My wrists still tire/play up when I do too much, so maybe you should try a smaller cable pattern first and see how you go? What about a nice cable hat?
The pattern is gorgeous though, but I have DB concerns for other reasons - knots in yarn, pilling and splitting yarn :(
I bought the three new DB books, my favourite by quite a way is the Luxury Collection. The cover jacket will be mine! I honestly can't proffer advice on cables, hope they work out for you though!
I love Romy!!!!! And I agree with Dreamcatcher that ALEX jacket is to dye for!!!! I love your new Helena colours!!!!! I'm glad you got them ;) I can't afford all that I want!!! :)
